Bushnell Sportsman 4x32 Riflescope

I was looking for a fixed power simple scope for a black powder rifle. This fit the bill at a great price. The mat finish is very good, there is no reflective glare off this scope! Can't say how well it might hold up on smokeless cartridge rifles but it is working well on muzzleloader. My only complaint, and this is picky, is that this scope has a larger eyepiece than objective. In addition there is a rubber ring for focus that adds to that profile. It looks somewhat as though you have mounted it backward according to convention but it works and it's not expensive.

I was looking for a fixed-power low-magnifaction scope for a Rossi .223 break-open rifle (part of a matched pair, .223 barrel and 20ga barrel). Thought about mounting one of my 3-9x40 scopes, but given what the rifle would be used for (teaching my son to shoot a rifle with iron and maginified sights, plinking) the 4X scope really was a better option. I have a small number of Bushnell scopes that I've been quite happy with (Trophy series mostly). Eye relief is good, image is sharp, basic reticle (I prefer mil-dot, but what do you want for $30?). Stays zero'd when adjusting for range. Can't complain.
